Unfortunately the Twitter shortcut doesn't seem to work anymore.
DL tweeted me back yesterday that the requests would be processed in the order they are received and that they have a huge backlog...
Sorry to hear that... I suggest you try again if it hasn't been processed yet in a week or so. First time I messaged them, they said the same. Second time, they got it done in less than 2 minutes. Make sure to include your SkyMiles number, of course.
But no SkyTeam benefits, right?
You get full SkyTeam benefits, with the exception of some SkyTeam partner lounges if they require a physical elite card since you will not be issued a physical elite card.
